Assertion (A) : Children learn most effectively when they are criticized frequently for their mistakes.
Reason (R) : Frequent criticism makes children self-reliant which helps in improving their academic performance.

  • A.Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
  • B.Both (A) and (R) are false.
  • C.(A) is true, but (R) is false.
  • D.Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Answer: B

Both (A) and (R) are false.

Children do not learn most effectively under frequent criticism. Constant criticism raises anxiety, lowers self-esteem and makes children afraid to try, which reduces learning. Errors are better treated as a normal part of learning and a source of information for the teacher.

The reason is false as well: frequent criticism tends to make children dependent on adult approval or discouraged, not self-reliant, and it does not improve academic performance. Since neither statement holds, every option calling (A) or (R) true is wrong.
